did you check the balance of the address on a block explorer like blockcypher?
also double check that you only have one wallet.dat file in your appdata folder and that you replaced the original wallet.dat file that came with the software with your backup and renamed it wallet.dat…
to restore a wallet you replace wallet.dat in appdata with you backup and rename it wallet.dat deleting the empty wallet
Thanks for the reply. Yes, I replaced the wallet file with the one from 2014, renamed it wallet.dat and did the rescan. The address is showing all zero’s on the block chain, but there are 6 unconfirmed trx in this wallet Ive restored, e.g.

You can open console under help tabs debug window…then click console…then type reindex and after is done type rescan…
Assuming you know how to use command prompt in windows you can also start from command prompt like this: Litecoin-qt.exe - reindex -rescan
After you “cd” to the location you have it installed
otherwise you need to sign the raw transaction with your private key so it can broadcast:
signrawtransaction “hexstring” ( [{“txid”:“id”,“vout”:n,“scriptPubKey”:“hex”,“redeemScript”:“hex”},…] [“privatekey1”,…] sighashtype )
type help in console and look through all that and see what the options are…
transaction didn’t broadcast when you signed it…if you dump the private key then youd just sweep it by typing importprivkey…however if the input is not in your backup it will not find a private key…you can try it and if it returns a key then import it and see what happens…if it returns one then you need to sweep that key to a different wallet
I had an issue recently where version 13.2.1 was not showing my change address and versoin 14 and 13.1 were but the private key was there and it returned it and everything…coins just wouldn’t pop up until I opened them in the new wallet version
